When training employees, you work with details, procedures and facts. This provides your learners with the knowledge and capability to successfully accomplish their jobs. As you start to use AI in training and analysis, do you have “all the facts”?

In this Ted Talk, Matt Beane speaks about how surgical residents train with and without AI tools.  What lessons learned apply to all industries from his insights?

AI + Learner

Consider Mr. Beane’s Ted Talk, not everyone uses AI to teach. We train using eLearning, VR and augmented reality solutions. These methods involve similar issues discussed in the video: an inability to “see one, do one, teach one”. Training teams develop the materials, present and gather data from observation and/or assessment(s). Most of the time, your training teams gather these data sets from the learning management system (LMS) or surveys.

Moving away from the expected LMS parameters, training teams use AI within an LMS to tailor for individuals. Each learner receives course suggestions based on past performance, enrollment or job. This is similar to Google Ads, Netflix, etc.

Let’s go another step further, are there questions and answers hidden in the data? If the data or facts are limited, AI learning analytics adds a new dimension to your details. Consider what the eLearning Industry discussed as the importance of AI to L&D (training). Moving beyond the algorithms within the LMS, AI offers an ability to “explore limitless possibilities”. Of those surveyed, almost 85% believe their company will gain a competitive edge from AI. Why?

AI + Learning Analytics + Facts = Training Future

From a training survey perspective, one option often ignored are open-ended questions. Although these provide more insight than a simple likert scale, the answers are time-consuming and inefficient for training teams to decipher. However, an AI could be designed to target words and themes which would allow the training team to gain the knowledge efficiently, expediently and effortlessly. Perhaps more importantly, your team will know the metrics presented for the training return on investment (ROI) is data driven.
